About Etto & Paula

Experience: their first school dates back to 1995, and they have now welcomed over 9,000 students! Etto is one of the people who have contributed most to the development of kitesurfing and windsurfing in Colombia.
Quality instructors: Etto and Paula have an extensive network of instructors specializing in kitesurfing and windsurfing. When I was there, there was Luis (a Venezuelan who competes in the world kitesurfing championships) and Chris (a German who has spent his life teaching kitesurfing all over the world). You'll learn with the best.
Pedagogy and beginners: in addition to his many qualifications in windsurfing and kitesurfing, Etto is a teacher who graduated from the Bremen College of Education in Germany. This is the ideal school for beginners.
Multilingual: Etto speaks Spanish, German, and English. You don't need to know much Spanish.
Equipment: kitesurfing and windsurfing equipment are expensive, and some schools can't afford to renew them. With Etto and Paula, you'll train with regularly renewed equipment.
Safety: the school doesn't play around with safety. For beginners, there is 1 hour of theory + 2 hours of practice on the beach with a small kite. Afterward, the school will choose an area where you can practice in the water (depending on your level and progress), and you'll be safe.
Kitesurfing trips to Punta Gallinas: the school organizes 5-day trips to Punta Gallinas several times a year. You might even get the chance to visit one of Colombia's best kitesurf spots.

How do we choose our partners ?

We select local travel agencies that meet our requirements (languages spoken, types of activities offered, reputation, organization, legally constituted company, etc.) and then test their services.

If we’re satisfied with the service, the agency will join our network of Colombian experts, and we will add it to our Tomplanmytrip website.

When we test the services of a potential partner, we always pay at least the operational costs of the activities. We are, therefore, free to recommend them (or not) without any pressure. Our opinion is never biased.
